Image
...yes, in spite of all, Some shape of beauty moves away the pall From out dark spirits.
John Keats
Image
What shocks the virtuous philosopher, delights the chameleon poet.
John Keats
Image
My mind has been the most discontented and restless one that ever was put into a body too small for it.... I never felt my mind repose upon anything with complete and undistracted enjoyment- upon no person but you. When you are in the room my thoughts never fly out of window: you always concentrate my whole senses
John Keats
Image
Turn the key deftly in the oiled wards, And seal the hushed Casket of my Soul.
John Keats
Image
Bright star, would I were steadfast as thou art-- Not in lone splendour hung aloft the night And watching, with eternal lids apart, Like nature's patient, sleepless Eremite.
John Keats
Image
Like a mermaid in sea-weed, she dreams awake, trembling in her soft and chilly nest.
John Keats

I will clamber through the clouds and exist.
John Keats

Their woes gone by, and both to heaven upflown, To bow for gratitude before Jove's throne.
John Keats
Image

John Keats
Image
No one can usurp the heights... But those to whom the miseries of the world Are misery, and will not let them rest.
John Keats
Image
Feeling well that breathed words Would all be lost, unheard, and vain as swords Against the enchased crocodile, or leaps Of grasshoppers against the sun.
John Keats
Image
I will imagine you Venus tonight and pray, pray, pray to your star like a Heathen.
John Keats
Image
Its better to lose your ego to the One you Love than to lose the One you Love to your Ego
John Keats
Image
I almost wish we were butterflies and liv'd but three summer days - three such days with you I could fill with more delight than fifty common years could ever contain.
John Keats
Image
The excellence of every Art is its intensity.
John Keats
Image
To bear all naked truths, And to envisage circumstance, all calm, That is the top of sovereignty
John Keats
Image
Failure is, in a sense, the highway to success.
John Keats
Image
Don't be discouraged by a failure. It can be a positive experience.
John Keats
Image
Open afresh your rounds of starry folds, Ye ardent Marigolds.
John Keats
